Facial Rejuvenation in Sugar Land, Katy, and Houston, Texas

As we age, the effects of time and environmental factors can cause our skin to lose elasticity and volume, resulting in a tired, aged appearance. Fortunately, there are several plastic surgery options available for facial rejuvenation. In this article, we will explore some of the most popular facial plastic surgery procedures to help you achieve a more youthful, refreshed look.

Facelift

A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that tightens and lifts the skin and underlying tissues of the face and neck. The surgeon makes incisions around the ears and hairline and lifts the skin to tighten the underlying muscles and tissues. A facelift can address sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and jowls, creating a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the upper and/or lower eyelids. The surgeon makes incisions along the natural creases of the eyelids to remove the excess tissue and tighten the remaining skin. Eyelid surgery can address droopy eyelids, bags under the eyes, and a tired appearance, creating a more rested and alert look.

Brow Lift

A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that lifts the eyebrows and forehead to create a more youthful and alert appearance. The surgeon can make incisions behind the hairline or within the forehead and lift the skin to tighten the underlying muscles and tissues. A brow lift can address forehead wrinkles, sagging eyebrows, and a heavy or tired appearance.

Neck Lift

A neck lift is a surgical procedure that tightens and lifts the skin and underlying tissues of the neck. The surgeon makes incisions behind the ears and under the chin and lifts the skin to tighten the underlying muscles and tissues. A neck lift can address sagging skin, neck bands, and a double chin, creating a more defined and youthful neckline.

Injectable Treatments

Injectable treatments, such as Botox and dermal fillers, are non-surgical options for facial rejuvenation. Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles and fine lines, creating a smoother, more youthful appearance. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, add volume to the face, filling in wrinkles, fine lines, and hollow areas, creating a more plump and youthful appearance.

Conclusion

Facial rejuvenation is a popular and effective way to achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Whether you're interested in a surgical or non-surgical option, there are many plastic surgery options available to address your specific concerns. It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine which procedure is right for you. With the right procedure, you can achieve a more confident and youthful appearance that reflects how you feel on the inside. Remember to choose a board-certified surgeon with experience in facial plastic surgery for the best results.


FAQ

What are acne scars?

Acne scars are the marks left on your skin after acne has healed. Typically, scarring happens when the skin tries to heal inflammation caused by active acne before the acne has gone away. Collagen loss and tissue damage during the acne healing process contribute to scar formation. Scarring can also be caused by exposure to the sun, repeated acne in the same area, or skin habits like picking or popping pimples.

What are the common scar types?

Scars comes in many forms, so both your skin type and the type of acne you are dealing with will determine how your skin scars after acne. As a note, while some scarring may fade by itself, such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, most scars don’t go away on their own and will require treatment. Some common scars include: *Hyperpigmentation *Dark spots *Enlarged pores *Icepick scars *Rolling scars *Boxcar scars

What are dark spots?

Dark spots, similar to hyperpigmentation, are areas of increased pigmentation on the skin. Dark spots are generally flat and can range in color from red to brown, depending on the individual’s skin tone and the stage of healing.

What are the enlarged pores?

Enlarged pores are not scars in the traditional sense but can contribute to an uneven skin texture. They often result from the dilation of hair follicles and oil glands during acne outbreaks. The increased production of oil, combined with the inflammation of surrounding tissues, can stretch the pores, making them more noticeable and giving the skin a rougher appearance.

How are icepick scars?

Icepick scars are deep, narrow pits that resemble small puncture wounds on the skin’s surface. These scars typically result from severe cystic acne that causes damage to the skin’s deeper layers.

What are the rolling scars?

Rolling scars create a wave-like or undulating texture on the skin. These scars are characterized by broad depressions with sloping edges, which give the skin a rolling or wavy appearance.

What are the Boxcar scars?

Boxcar scars are broader depressions with well-defined edges, resembling the appearance of chickenpox scars. These scars often result from inflammatory acne and are characterized by their box-like shape.

How do textured scars look?

Textured scars can be several skin layers deep and make the surface of the skin feel and look bumpy.

What Acne Scar Treatment Options Do You Have?

There are several options to consider. Usually, the scar treatment you use will depend on the type of scar that is being treated, as well as how well controlled your acne is and your skin type. The following treatment options are popular at our clinic: 1. Chemical Peels 2. Laser Treatment 3. Prescription Cream 4. RF Microneedling 5. Microneedling

What is a chemical peel?

Chemical peels remove the topmost layer of skin cells from the skin surface, which is why peels are an ideal solution for treating dark spots and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Chemical peels can also be extremely useful in managing or controlling acne, as well as shrinking the size of enlarged pores.

Reviews from our clients

I love this place. Dr. Cedeno Laurent is excellent. He listens to the patient, explains and answers the questions in a clear way. English or Spanish he gives the advice.

- Matthew LeDoux - September 12, 2024
My son has been visiting this office for about four years now. Each visit is organized competently and without tedious waiting. The doctor's recommendations are always structured clearly and professionally, without fanaticism. It's easy to follow his laid out plan. My son got rid of active acne on his face, knows how to cope with eczema if it becomes active, and knows how to properly take care of his scalp. I recommend it.
